The length of the room is 2½ times the breadth. The perimeter of the room is 70 m. What are the length and breadth of the room?

Length = 25 cm

Breadth = 10 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let breadth of the room be 'x'

Let length of the room be ''

Perimeter ( P ) = 70 cm

Now, let's find the breadth of the room 'x '

Perimeter of rectangle =  2(l+b)

plug the values

70=2(2.5x+x)

Collect the like terms

70=2x3.5x

Calculate the product

70=7x

Swap the sides of the equation

7x=70

Divide both sides of the equation by 7

7x / 7= 70/7

Calculate

x=10cm

Breadth = 10 cm

Now, Let's find the length of the room ' 2.5x '

Length of the room =  2.5x

Plug the value of X

2.5x10

Calculate the product

25cm

Thus , The length and breadth of the room is 25 cm and 10 cm respectively.

Hope this helps..

he used the algebra tiles correctly.

step-by-step explanation:

given : 3x(2x-1)

solution :

since he used algebra tiles .

armando's solution is the same in the solution shown in figure

as he distributed 2x into x and x and wrote them vertically

and also write   -1 vertically

and 3x into x and x and x and wrote it horizontally

performing the multiplication in the algebra tiles we get

and solving the given expression :

3x(2x-1)

since solving the expression using tiles   and solving the expression algebraically we get the same answer

thus   we can choose the first statement as the answer to this problem which is "he used the algebra tiles correctly".
